Paula Vennells, the former Post Office CEO, nearly became Bishop of London in 2017.
She was on a three-person shortlist interviewed for the role - the third most senior in the Church of England.

There is something very wrong in the UK if people such as Vennells are rewarded with CBE's and almost become Bishop of London!
Here are the official guidelines for "injury to feelings" in employment tribunal cases.

The Post Office is offering £5,000 to the people it wrongly accused of theft, and whose lives it wrecked. That's not even in the middle of the lowest band, for "less serious cases". pic.twitter.com/AAuLQv0bWU

Will Ed Davey have to quit over the Post Office scandal? https://t.co/ERio8JGkAU
Sir Ed Davey it seems was not very helpful towards the Post Office Justice for SubPostmasters Alliance while Minister for Postal Affairs in 2010, as he snubbed them when they asked for a meeting.
May 2010 correspondence to the group from Sir Ed said:
“Whilst I do appreciate your concerns, I do not believe a meeting would serve any useful purpose.”
Suffice to say he is blaming the Post Office for misleading him, even though it was his role to look into this!

Given that Sunak is prone to change his mind, I wouldn't set too much store by this!
